Our New "DIGGS"

And we're back, well kind of, back in the terms of writing!!! So on Wednesday we decided to move some of our stuff in. We wanted to pick up our keys and thought well we might as well bring a car load... get a little preview of what was to come with our U-Haul adventure on Saturday. Jill took the train in early because she had an interview at a cool place in the East Village, and Kelly made the trek in her car to meet her there around noon. We grabbed a nice lunch at the Gracie Cafe to recharge our energy for that lovely hike up our stairs.....

BOY OH BOY did we underestimate living on the 5th floor of a walk up... HOLY sore legs. We took turns bringing things up and staying next to the car but both agreed that one floor below ours is when exhaustion hits... we didn't think it would all make it up there! (sad thing is, this is just the pre-move-in ... move in) Saturday should be VERY fun :)

After moving some stuff in, Kelly went to talk to a guy about props on a film, and Jill decided to document ever nook and cranny with her camera... 40 pictures of our 4 room apartment haha. (You can see some of them below) Then we cleaned some, organized things, realized it is very hard to build furniture using a shoe instead of a hammer,

went for a walk around the neighborhood and the park, picked up a pizza and some wine

and headed back to our place to drink and dine picnic style on our living room floor. After thoroughly entertaining ourselves just being silly for HOURS (no tv, games,or cards wedidnt think that one through) we called it a night.. crawled into our sleeping bags and spent our first night in our apartment on the floor of the living room terrified that pigeons might joins us in the night as we kept the windows open to cool down the place.

We are back in CT finishing up packing and squaring away the odds and ends. Off to the big city for good Saturday morning at 8:00 am :) Below are some pics of our "Diggs" (which thanks to Katie we found out it is the cool way to say place) haha.
